I sit calmly in my office, eyes lowered to the thick files spread across the desk.
Numbers. Contracts. Strategies.
I am learning how to ruin a business—
and how to win in the business world.
If I want a bright future… if I truly want a peaceful life with my future partner, then money is unavoidable. Love alone doesn't protect you. I learned that lesson too early in my real life.
Even though I was a broke high school student, I was never stupid.
My grades were always at the top.
I learn fast—too fast sometimes.
I rest one elbow on the table, my chin settling lazily into my palm, and my gaze drifts—without permission—toward Deniz.
He sits across from me, posture straight, shoulders relaxed but disciplined, completely absorbed in his work. His fingers move swiftly across the tablet, eyes sharp behind thin glasses.
Looks beautiful...
I want a future with him.
The thought slips into my mind so naturally that it surprises me.
A quiet, peaceful life.
Enough money.
No fear.
